i found out too late that i didn't potatoes for soup, but i had already pulled out my broth. i remembered i had taco meat in the freezer, so i looked for taco soup recipes. all the recipes i found called for taco seasoning-which i didn't have. i made this from scratch, without a recipe! it was really yummy, so try it and give me some feedback.. :)
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 lb ground beef (i had left over taco meat in my freezer)
1 green pepper, chopped
1 onion, chopped
3 teaspoons cumin
2 teaspoons dried chili pepper flakes
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cilantro
2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
6 cups beef broth
1 quart canned tomato
2 soft taco-size flour tortillas
1 cup cheddar cheese, grated
1 cup sour cream
Directions:
1. *because i already had my taco seasoning, change the amount of seasonings according to your taste*.
2. heat oil in pan.
3. add cooked beef, green pepper, onion and spices.
4. if using home canned tomatoes, cut into smaller, bite-sized pieces. (i used my hand mixer inside the jar) add tomatoes into a pot with the beef broth.
5. add beef mixture.
6. cut tortillas in small rectangular pieces (about 1 x2 ) and add to soup.
7. add cheese and sour cream.
